I am using a UIAlertView in my code in iOS5, but rather than the classic popup window with an "OK" button to exit, I'd prefer to have my alert show as a banner at the top of the screen that eventually fades away.
Is it possible to change the style of UIAlertView to resemble the iOS 5 push notification banner or does it have to be a popup window that must be dismissed manually? If not, is there any way to use the iOS5 banner notification rather than an alert notification? I don't need to send a push notification but just need to alert the user of something that happens on the server side using the app.
